Ive been trying many stuff with the smb.conf file but Ill copy what it is set to right
now:
[global]
server string = Samba Server
guest account = nobody
workgroup = SBS
netbios name = SAMBA
public = yes
browsable = yes
domain logons = no
null passwords = yes
min passwd length = 0
password level = 8
username level = 8
wins server = 192.168.0.1
; interfaces = 192.168.0.199/255.255.0.0
; bind interfaces only = yes
dns proxy = no
guest ok = yes
map to guest = bad user
encrypt passwords = no
security = user
log level = 3
local master = no
domain master = no
; alternate permissions = yes
[NETLOGON]
path = /usr/local/samba/lib/netlogon
guest ok = yes
readonly = yes
[share]
comment = Share Directory
path = /share
read only = no
public = yes
browsable = yes
and BTW the following command:
nmblookup -B 192.168.255.255 samba returns:
name_query failed to find name samba
my net mask is 255.255.0.0 and my samba server name is samba
